Televoke, a
telematics software company, announced Mar. 4 at the Digital Car
Conference that it has selected WirelessCar, a provider of
telematics infrastructure services, to deliver transaction-based
billing systems so Televoke business partners can address the
billing needs of enterprise and fleet customers.
According to the company, the WirelessCar billing system, t-Bill, already in use by multiple Telematics Service Providers, will
provide a new value-added service that will allow Televoke and its
business partners to provide more detailed accounting and
transaction-based usage models required in many enterprise and
high-end consumer services.
"Flexibility in billing is critical for Televoke and its partners
to stay ahead in a competitive marketplace," said Bob Kimball, CEO of
Televoke. "WirelessCar provides the best of both worlds to help
Televoke maintain its competitive edge -- a flexible, sophisticated
billing system, as well as comprehensive knowledge and experience in
the telematics industry."
Through more detailed subscriber information, the WirelessCar
system will help Televoke and its partners to easily offer new and
differentiated service offerings. The system will also help optimize
network performance and maximize profitability through improved
revenue assurance, according to Televoke.
"We are delighted to be working with Televoke, a leader in
telematics services, particularly in the U.S. telematics aftermarket,"
said Gary Hallgren, COO of WirelessCar. "We look forward to working
with them as they move into other applications and international
markets."
